How to restore/recover ipod touch 3rd gen.

It says "Disabled for 22 million minutes." I followed instructions online and put it in dtf mode or whatever, but nothing pops up when I sign into itunes... Help??

Try this again. It can be tricky to get into recovery and DFU modes
Place the iPod in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

Next try another computer.

    You cannot.  This is not a feature of the Netflix app as provided by illaass.

  • Mysteriously my safari app disappeared from my Ipod Touch 3rd gen.  How do I reload it?  I "restored" my ipod from my Mac Book, but still no safari.  Any help appreciated.

    My ipod touch 3rd gen suddenly lost the safari app.  I restored it from my mac book sync, but still no app.  I'm wondering if when I messed around with "restrictions" through settings did something.  Any help is appreciated.

    Go to your Home screen on the iPod then swipe to the left so you see the white search field top of the window. Type in: Safari  then tap Search.
    Tap Settings / General / Restrictions. On or off?

    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings if you can
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    -  Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

  • How do I make a folder in iOS4 for Ipod Touch 3rd Gen 32gb?

    How do I create a folder to place apps in? I just upgraded my Ipod Touch 3rd gen, 32gb to iOS4 and I don't know how or where I go to create a folder.
    The update also said I could have a home screen wallpaper. (Does this mean behind the apps?) If it does, how do I set it?

    Folders: press and hold an app icon until they start to wiggle. Then drag the icon onto another icon and a folder will be created.
    For Wallpapers: Go to settings>general>wallpaper>choose picture>then you can set as lockscreen, homescreen(yes behind apps), or both.

  • My iTunes says my iPod touch 3rd Gen is up to date with iOs 4.2.1, how do I get the new iOs 5?

    My iTunes says my iPod touch 3rd Gen is up to date with iOs 4.2.1, how do I get the new iOs 5?

    You must update your iTunes software to 10.5 first then you can upgrade to iOS 5.
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    According to Apple the iPod touch 3rd gen can update to iOS 5.
    "iCloud requires iOS 5 on iPhone 3GS or later, iPod touch (3rd and 4th generation), iPad, or iPad 2; a Mac computer with OS X Lion; or a PC with Windows Vista or Windows 7 (Outlook 2007 or 2010 or an up-to-date browser is required for accessing email, contacts, and calendars). Some features require a Wi-Fi connection. Some features are not available in all countries. Access to some services is limited to 10 devices."

  • How to update ipod touch 3rd gen 64GB (A1318) to iOS 7. iOS 6 or iOS 7 required to install apps like youtube and soundcloud.

    Hello Apple,
    I have an iPod touch 3rd gen 64GB (A1318) and I wish to install apps like youtube and soundcloud from the app store. But most of the apps require iOS 6 or 7 for them to be installed into the iPod touch. So, how can update my iPod touch to iOS6 or 7. As the lasted update available is only iOS 5.1.1
    Kindly help me to get the apps installed into my iPod touch.
    Thanks.

    That iPod touch can't be updated past 5.1.1. If desired, click here and try following the instructions.

    I have an iPod touch 3rd gen that is stuck on the Apple logo and also has that spinning of wheel death thing. I am trying to enter into DFU mode but won't work due to the home button not working. Is there any other way I can fix this and make it boot back up regularly?

  • Im going to restore my ipod touch(4th gen) to factory settings. my question is, how do i back up all notes from the app "notes" so they can be reinstalled? or is it allready backed up as per the main "back-up" ?

    im going to restore my ipod touch(4th gen) to factory settings. my question is, how do i back up all notes from the app "notes" so they can be reinstalled? or is it allready backed up as per the main "back-up" ? I know its a simple question, but i dont know the answer. please help.

    The iPod backup that iTunes makes includes Notes.and other app data. However, it does not included synced media like apps and music.
    Thus, just restore from backup with all your synced media in your iTunes library.

  • IPod Touch 3rd Gen Won't Restore

    I have an ipod touch 3rd gen that I can't get to restore. The ipod won't turn on unless it's plugged in and goes straight to the apple logo, so I put it into recovery mode and try to do a restore. It extracts the software but as soon as it says preparing ipod for restore the ipods screen turns white for a brief second and it restarts itself back to the connect to itunes logo then loops the same process until itunes comes up with an error saying The iPod "iPod" could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (1611). I've tried several different computers and have also tried replacing the battery but still no luck. Does anybody have any other suggestions I can try?

    Error 1611: This error may indicate a hardware issue with your device. Follow the steps in this article. Alsoattempt to restore while connected with a known-good 30-pin Dock Connector cable, computer, and network to isolate this issue to the device. The MAC address being missing or the IMEI being the default value (00 499901 064000 0) can also confirm a hardware issue. Out-of-date or incorrectly configured proxy or security software, such as FoxyProxy, can cause error 1611. To troubleshoot third-party security software, follow these steps.
